NT LIVE: The Tragedy of King Richard II

Description

Live Broadcast

Seasoned Shakespearean actor Simon Russell Beale (King Lear) plays the last Plantagenet king, Richard II, in a visceral, subversively reimagined new production about the limits of power directed by Joe Hill-Gibbins (Little Revolution, Absolute Hell). Expect to be surprised by this revival from the Almeida Theatre, which has a strong track record for startling interpretations of Shakespeare.
